Grief Therapists in Brooklyn, NY
I treat many people who are dealing with grief and loss.
First - I love my work. Everything else flows from that. I have been a psychotherapist for more than thirty years and have studied a variety of theoretical and practical techniques to help people in emotional pain. I have a Masters Degree in Social Work and a Certificate in Psychoanalysis. The most important thing for a therapist is to begin with the patients' concerns and feelings. As the great Rabbi Hillel said: "the rest is commentary."
